This Magical Moonlight Float Trip In North Carolina Will Take Your Summer To A Whole New Level

When it comes to amazing places to gawk at the moon in the Tar Heel State, the possibilities are endless. But when considering a truly monumental spot to gaze at the moon and the stars, there may not be a place any more magical than from atop the water on this awesome nighttime float trip in North Carolina.

Whether you're a budding stargazer and love checking out the night sky, or are a romantic sort who finds all things relating to the moon spark a passion deep inside, you'll go wild over this nighttime lake paddle.

If you've never kayaked at night as the sun goes down and the sky lights up from the glow of the moon, then you've been missing out.

Frog Hollow Outdoors, located in Durham, specializes in all things outdoors — including nighttime paddles to gaze at the moon and the stars.

For a mere $30 per person, you can join a guided group paddle under the moonlight and the night sky. The tours begin just as, or just after, the sun sets and the night sky is beginning to illuminate.

Frog Hollow Outdoors brings all of the equipment and all you have to do is show up ready to paddle.

The moonlight and starlight paddles (there are separate paddles for each) are suitable for all levels of kayaking experience. And since the trips take place on a flat water lake, you won't need to be worried about negotiating any rapids.

Trips take place on either Falls Lake (Moonlight Paddle) or Jordan Lake (Starlight Paddle) and are always at a nice, leisurely pace.

Even if you're not an experienced paddler, you should be able to keep up with the group.

If you're a little queasy about paddling after dark, then you can opt to take another tour that Frog Hollow offers.

The sunset paddle departs 60-90 minutes earlier and still delivers beautiful evening views from your very own man-powered vessel.

Of course, you could time your trip to coincide with a full moon...

And then hope it's a clear night — but even if it turns out to be cloudy, you'll still have an incredible experience.

Get ready to see the night sky and the moon rise in a whole new light on this moonlight float trip in North Carolina.

Several trip dates are on the calendar for the rest of the year. You can see the dates for all of the $30 paddles (as well as one $40 paddle) at this link.
